Primordial Black Hole Formation from Inflaton [PDF]
Measurements of the distances to SNe Ia have produced strong evidence that the Universe is really accelarating, implying the existence of a nearly uniform component of dark energy with the simplest explanation as a cosmological constant.

Primordial black hole superradiance and evaporation in the string axiverse [PDF]
In the string axiverse scenario, light primordial black holes may spin up due to the Hawking emission of a large number of light (sub-MeV) axions. We show that this may trigger superradiant instabilities associated with a heavier axion during the black ...

The Basics of Primordial Black Hole Formation and Abundance Estimation [PDF]
This paper is a biased review of the primordial black hole (PBH) formation and abundance estimation. We first review the three-zone model for PBH formation to help an intuitive understanding of the PBH formation process. Then, for more accurate analyses,

The dark universe: Primordial black hole ⇋ dark graviton gas connection [PDF]
We study the possible correspondence between 5-dimensional primordial black holes and massive 5-dimensional KK gravitons as dark matter candidate within the recently proposed dark dimension scenario that addresses the cosmological hierarchy problem ...

Primordial black-hole dark matter via warm natural inflation [PDF]
We report on a study of the natural warm inflationary paradigm (WNI). We show two important new results arise in this model. One is that the observational constraints on the primordial power spectrum from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) can be ...

Gravitational waves induced from primordial black hole fluctuations: the effect of an extended mass function [PDF]
The gravitational potential of initially Poisson distributed primordial black holes (PBH) can induce a stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) at second order in cosmological perturbation theory. This SGWB was previously studied in the context of

Planck constraints and gravitational wave forecasts for primordial black hole dark matter seeded by multifield inflation [PDF]
We perform a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) analysis of a simple yet generic multifield inflation model characterized by two scalar fields coupled to each other and nonminimally coupled to gravity, fit to Planck 2018 cosmic microwave background (CMB ...

Constraining Primordial Black Hole Formation from Single-Field Inflation. [PDF]
The most widely studied formation mechanism of a primordial black hole is collapse of large-amplitude perturbation on small scales generated in single-field inflation.

How well do we know the primordial black hole abundance: The crucial role of nonlinearities when approaching the horizon [PDF]
We discuss the non-linear corrections entering in the calculation of the primordial black hole abundance from the non-linear radiation transfer function and the determination of the true physical horizon crossing.
